    During the 14th century, Shamsuddin Firoz Shah became the first Muslim ruler to arrive in the city.

    The Muslim settlements in the city increased during the time of Shamsuddin Ilyas Shah.
    Subsequently, many mosques and shrines began to be established. In the 15th century, a Muslim
    saint named Khan Jahan Ali acquired a Jaigir comprising a large part of the greater Khulna
    Divisionfrom the king of Gaua. Later he started to exercise full rights of sovereignty and continued
    to do so till his death in 1459.

    After the death of Khan Jahan Ali, the city again became a part of the Sultanate of Bengal. During
    the reign of Daud Khan Karraniin the 16th century, Vikramaditya, one of the chief ministers of the
    ruler, obtained a grant in the southern Bengal including Khulna when the ruler was busy fighting
    the Mughals. He then established a sovereign kingdom, having the capital at Iswaripur currently
    inJessore District. Vikramaditya was succeeded by his son Pratapaditya who gained preeminence
    over the Baro-Bhuyans, holding strong possession of Southern Bengal. He was eventually defeated
    by Man Singh I, a Hindu general of the Mughal emperor Akbar, in 1611 AD.
